Sometimes you can get free samples from your doctors office or a coupon from the maker to use with the prescription from your doctor. Let me give you a warning before you try chantix. Always research any new medication before trying it. My husband was prescribed chantix to quit smoking. After he started taking it he began having panic attacks. He had never had one before the medication but began having them during. Unfortunately that is now something he has to live with for the of his life.
We are not medical doctors so if you want to know about the side effects then you should call them (chantix) directly at 1-877-CHANTIX. Also, there is something that comes with the prescription that tells you about the risks. You had better read up on it.
Sorry to hear that you are having seizures. I took chantix with very little side effects.
Good luck with everything and if you need support with your quit, then we are here for you.
Hi, I'm taking chantix along with other meds, sertraline, is another anti depressant in the same category with no problems. I think (but dont quote me) that it is the MAOI's and Trycilyic anti d's that chantix is not recommended.
I have experienceing high fevers ...are they associated with ms? For 17 months i am still undx will get tests back in a few days ...and i want to finally quit smoking but they want me to wait to fill the prescription until all my tests come back now im getting worried ...
So the fact that playing with your brain neurotransmitters, something that Chantix does as well, makes you feel better than you did doesn't mean you were depressed, it means you felt a bit better because nicotine causes an increase in dopamine release and Chantix mimics this effect as it blocks nicotine from attaching to nicotine receptors.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for smoking cessation; both are available in pill form and only by prescription. Chantix received FDA approval in 2006; Zyban was approved in 1997. These drugs can be effective tools, but users need to be aware of some potentially serious side effects. You can try that and they are very cheap in some pharmacy's.
Last june i was hospitalized with pneumonia, being a smoker they put a patch on me, i am to understand that they are not for 24 hr use and should be moved from one place to another, when i was realeased i bought patches and had a very bad reaction my Dr.
Hey everyone,
Just checking in with a status report! OK, so I went to the pain doctor this morning. I had 3 injections in my back (Which hurt like an SOB with no sedative...) and I spoke with the Doctor. I didn't mention the severity of my pill usage, but I DID talk to him about what other options there were instead of Narcotics. Basically, he said this: Narcotics are to be used when and only when you're hurting SO bad that you can't make it to the door...lol..if he ONLY knew..
My next period which was roughly 3 weeks later was NORMAL! No excess bleeding...no crippling cramps and no pain while using the bathroom. When I told my doctor about this she was amazed! If you think you have endometriosis I high recommend taking a daily dose of parsley. It's cheap and it worked for me. There are no known side effects either. I hope this helps...
This time was different. My husband and family just keep nagging me until I was fed up. I decided to buy the patch and used them for two weeks until I broke out. I then went to the doctor and got a prescription for Chantix, but never got it filled. Instead I took the patch off and went cold turkey. It was a hard few days, but after that each day got a little easier. The withdrawls begin to go away, but I would find myself thinking about smoking.
Overall, there were 1,055 reports of serious problems with Chantix reported in the third quarter of 2010, more than any other prescription medication regularly monitored by the drug safety agency, Moore said.
Before last July, the FDA had logged 122 reports of suicides linked to Chantix, including 37 reported by Pfizer and 85 reported by health professionals or consumers, Moore reported. After the 150 new Pfizer reports were added, the total jumped to 272.
I also had a horrible experience with the Chantix. I became very angry and wanted to be violent but thankfully never actually got violent. I had horrible nightmares too so I was always scared to go to sleep. I decided to quit taking it as I figured smoking was better than prison for murder! I have smoked for over 25 years and have quit a couple of times over the years but always went back. For Christmas, my kids got me the electronic cigarette and it is actually working.
